Welcome to A Matter of Horse. We are a small, friendly forum with no aspirations to change the world but just to provide a place where people can share information and keep in touch. We wish to foster an environment for debate and discussion because we believe it is the best way of learning and expanding our horizons. Our philosophy is that the welfare of the horse is paramount; these generous animals allow us into their lives and we want our interactions with them to be as harmonious as possible. We will be tackling contentious and controversial issues, so strong opinions, albeit expressed in a considerate manner, will be encouraged. We would like all members to feel they have a voice, no matter what level of experience they have with horses. Everyone's opinion is valid and we hope that members feel they can be honest and true to themselves whilst respecting the views of others.
